Just got my permit for the Falls chain, entry date June 15. Intend to be in Kawnipi that night. Just me and Scott, my NRA member/conservative high school buddy with whom I took many Quetico trips in the 1980's. He has not gone the last 3 years as his partner could not stay upright and they tipped 3 times on their last trip. Hopefully I will be an improvement and I am really excited to do a trip with the focus being fishing and more fishing. It will be my first Q trip with a depth finder.

Snow Dog and Old Salt (along with 1 other adult and a gaggle of 5 kids) are pleased to announce our presence in/around the Kawnipi Lake area during the 10 days preceding July 4th.

If you think you can outfish, outcamp, or outpaddle us, you are welcome to stop by and challenge us to a duel, or to just swap lies stories and lies information.

The fishing contest begins with our arrival. We will camp in McKenzie bay area. We will be in 3 canoes. OS will be paddling an SRQ 17' LeTigre. SD will be paddling a red SRQ 17'. Tim's canoe is TBD. Our site will be marked with Jimbo's invasive species, the infamous pink flamingo. If you are in the area, stop by. Wink

Sorry boy's but qp is out.  Hoping to head back to Costa Rice in May, and there's not enough time off for another weeks off from work. Besides, the fish are much bigger there.   Grin

I will be heading out so we may meet on the Falls chain. Although it will be our intent not to traumatize all the fish in Kawnipi so as to ruin your fishing, it can not be guaranteed.

I was keeping this on the back burner as a possibility but just this past week committed to a Philmont trek in July so will not be joining a "meet" this year.  I'm sure it wil be terrific!

Maybe our routes will overlap.

I expect to be at the north end of Kawnipi on the night of June 23 (maybe site 1MP), heading out and around the corner to Montgomery on the 24th. Unless your schedule changes, I will probably miss you on that leg of my trip.

But I hope to be back on Kawnipi on July 2 (if schedule holds), camping on the west side (1LN or 1KW?) that night and heading through MacKenzie Bay to MacKenzie Lake on July 3. Maybe we will cross paths on one of those days?

I will be paddling my stripper and probably wearing a once-white t-shirt and a navy blue ball cap.

Looks like a near miss on both ends Joe. We enter on 23rd, heading to McEwen. On the 2nd, we will leave our camp from south end of Kawnipi, heading out, camping on Saganagons or Cache bay. We meet the tow on the 3rd.

On the 1st, we will be paddling from McKenzie lake to Atkins bay area.

Sorry 'bout that.

Anyone else gonna be around?
